The Desert Botanical Garden is the best place to find those busy little cactus wrens hard at work. This one was taking a breather and enjoying the view from atop a cactus. I'm always amazed by how comfortable they are with all those thorns sticking out around them. This one is actually perched atop those thorns.

What stunning little birds
A brilliant capture of this beautiful bird.
Great colors on the pretty bird.
That blue sky makes the bird's colors pop and shows off the cactus' prickly thorns.
It is a cute bird, Sharon. With tough feet. ;-)
What a beautiful little bird. It really stands out on top of the cactus.
I love cactus wrens. So much personality! I see them nesting in cholla plants, which have the sharpest, nastiest spines of any cactus!
Hi Sharon,
I discovered your blog and have already joined your friends.
